Hi

 

I have a problem in some mails that contains an attachment files like msg.

In the tracking message it tells my that:

 

"encountered message scanning error: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, NoneType found" 

is there any problem to scan those files?

 

Is there any fix for it?

Hi Doron,

 

I do not think there should be any issues scanning msg attachments in emails.

 

Could you confirm if you see this error for specific or all msg attachments?

 

Passing a msg attachment I saved from Outlook through a lab device on Async OS 11 showed no errors.

 

You may want to open a TAC case to see if the issue can be recreated for specific attachment to determine a cause.

 

You could also test yourself by passing multiple msg attachments through your device to narrow down what is different in specific attachments.
